What Happened After the Close
OF Our Yesterday,s Report.
Owing to the lateness Of the hour al
which the speeches were begun at the
banquet given to ex-Representative
Markham, Wednesday night at Pasade.

yesterdays issue the address Of welcome
by the master of ceremonies, Captain D.
R. Risley, and the very happy and we'll
considered response of Colonel Mar khan.
We give below report of what took
place afterwards.
The room in which the banquet was
given was the spacious dining hall Of the
Carlton, a very biiou of hotel, in the
heart of Pasadena, and conducted by
mine host Il. w. Root, one of those rare
beings we see at long intervals who en-
phatically fill the high encomium, when
we happily find one of them, that ''he
knows how to keep hotel" The hall
was decorated with art and good taste.

lilies sprouted out from the hearth, and

DISGRACEFUL SCENE.
The Salvation Army interrupted
I'm Its DevOtiOns.

I'm Its DevOtiOns.
Within the past two days number
of the members of the holiness Band,
composed of men and women, have
arrived from San Francisco and have
created quite stir in the ranks of their
fconfederates, the Salvation Army. They
have been holding nightly services at
different corners in the city, and after
enthusing number of bystanders pa
rade to their Headquarters in the hall
under the Nadeau House where their
religious services are held. Last night
they struck o hard corner-the tar fiat
of Los Angeles--if such it may be called,
and here they encountered number of
hoodlum youths who were bent on mis-.
chief and thought the new arrivals good
subjects for their caprices. The visiting
Salvation Army, numbering about eight
members, men and womep, took up
their fort on Court and Spring
streets about eight o'clock. The
youths set up an uproar which drowned
all other voices and the Salvation Army
wisely concluded to move TO pastures,
more congenial. But the youths fol-
lowed the Band of Hope and Religion,
and when they reached the Nadeau
House the crowd numbered about 400
and many prolonged boots and yells
were heard. This gave the public the
idea that the Salvation Army was being
rotten eeged and many joined in to see
the trouble. But the workers of the
Lord retreated to their hall and began to
sing hymn in perfect defiance Of the
ignorant mob, and no damage was done.
The whipping post is just about the
proper caper for these young hoodlums.
The constitution guarantees the right to
worship God after the dictates of ones
own conscience and it is to be hoped that
another such disgraceful scene as last
night will result in some arrests.

Nine Hun drcd Dollars subscribed
TO this worthy object.
The subscription started few days
ago by gentleman in Pasadena, who
withholds his name, to aid Mrs. Watson
in her design to rescue stray girl by
furnishing home for them, has borne
fruit. Yesterday she was gratified to
receive from wellknown citizens addi-
lional subscriptions. The list OF sub

This is very encouraging start.
Many other citizens are seriously enter

movement along with their purses and
their personal assistance. As soon as
The subscriptions have reached round
figure, a meeting of the subscribers will
be held aud steps taken to organize the
movement into practical working asso.
citation, with an efficient Board OF Man
ayers. In the meantime, Mrs. Watson
will prepare such arrangements as will
enable her to carry out for the present,
on small scale, the noble work to
which she has devoted her life. What
nobler or holier work could be under
taken than that of saving young girls
from falling and rescuing those that have
passed the horrid brink ? With such a
refuge for these as this movement con.
templates, reforms will be rendered
practicable, and many lost women will
be restored to lives Of decency and use
fulness who would otherwise have
marched on to the horrible end in sin,
degradation and wretchedness--not only
hopeless outcasts, but burthen as well
as stain on society.
Let the good work 20 on. Those who
can only offer small subscriptions to this
noble work should not hesitate to con.
tribute because they are running large
just now. They must recollect the
lesson of the widows mite, and know
that it is the small offerings Of the
masses that finally ove,top all the great
sums that wealth can give.
